Also recognized were the films The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and ParaNorman.

GLAAD prez Herndon Graddick is proud of all 120 nominees. He says:

"Images and stories from the LGBT community continue to push support for equality to historic levels.

Now more than ever, viewers not only accept gay and transgender characters and plot lines, they expect them – just as they both accept and expect LGBT people to be a valuable part of their everyday lives."

We couldn't agree more! The LGBT community is broader and more accepted than ever before!

When are people going to realize having award shows specifically aimed for certain groups of people does more harm than good? If we had a "White Men's awards show" women would cry sexism, blacks would cry racism, gays would cry homophobia. But it's ok for blacks, hispanics, gays, women to have their own awards but if whites do it, it's one of those listed above? Give me a break.

Special-interest, discriminatory awards that focus on deviants do not impress me and do not impress most of the public. Gay people have unnatural sex. There is nothing to praise about it; on the contrary, it's abnormal and should not be embraced by society. I don't care what you homos do to make yourself feel less freakish; the fact is that you people are nasty and you homos started AIDS. So fuck off, you nasty ape-faced freak.

We do have white appreciation awards shows… look at most every awards show and you will see white people, mostly men, winning. Even the picture here shows 3 white men. Why is it soooo hard for white people to let minorities have their own space, we whitewash and heterosexualize anything and everything in popular media anyway.

Gays are maybe 2-5% of the population. If gays want their own award, every minority group should have their own award too. Since everyone is crying out for recognition and publicity, How about awards for different races, different ages, different years of experience, different countries of origin, different hair color…etc. Doesn't that cheapen awards? Not GLAAD at all…it is so SADD.

Zayn previewed the duet by posting a black and white pic of himself with Swifty on his Instagram -- but hey, she is bestiez with his girlfriend Gigi Hadid, so it wouldn't be unusual that they hang out... But collab?!
